Club Meeting. 



At the regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club last evening one new member was 

 elected, bills covering the expense of the 

 banquet were ordered paid and as no 

 further business was presented the meet- 

 ing was adjourned and the members pro- 

 ceeded to bowl. Some of the members 

 are showing very great improvement in 

 their delivery and by the time of the 

 next convention there will be some sur- 

 prises. 



It was reported at the meeting last 

 night that about six of our members will 

 attend the carnation meeting next 

 month. 



One feature of our club meetings is 

 not patronized as much as it should be. 

 and that is the question box. It is by 

 asking questions that we learn, and it is 

 the discussion that is aroused by the 

 question that makes an interesting meet- 

 ing. 



Various Items. 



I am pleased to see the discussion that 

 is going on in the columns of one of our 

 contemporaries, brought out by its 

 Cleveland correspondent, through the as- 

 sertion that the talk about pickling car- 

 nations is most all humbug. For my 

 part, as a grower and retailer, I am com- 

 pelled to begin saving carnations at least 

 ten days before Christmas and the same 

 at Easter in order to supply the demand 

 on those particular days. If it is done 

 judiciously I believe no harm will come 

 from it. 



One of our honored members, Adam 

 Graham, was elected president of one of 

 our banking houses the past week. 



Trade here the past week has been a 

 little slow, but there has been no drug 

 in any lines as yet. Daffodils and tulips 

 are becoming more plentiful and carna- 

 tions are showing up better, with roses 

 about the same. 



There has been some complaint about 

 the Bride rose not doing so well in the 

 matter of throwing blooming wood, some 

 claiming that it is deteriorating in value, 

 on that account, as a paying rose. 



Our sick are reported as improving. 



Mr. Brown, formerly of Mentor, has 

 accepted a position with James Wilson. 



Tenep. 



Parkersburg, W. Va. — The roses, car- 

 nations and palms at the establishment 

 of J. W. Dudley & Son are looking fine. 

 G. A. Hiehle has sold his grocery store 

 on Market street and is running his 

 greenhouses on St. Mary's avenue him- 

 self. 



Sedaua, Mo. — Gelven & Son have 

 bought new ground and glass for the 

 erection of an entirely new greenhouse 

 plant, to be separate from their present 

 establishment and to be devoted to the 

 growing of roses for the wholesale trade. 

 The new plant will have all latest im- 

 provements. Tlicy report a very satis- 

 factorv Clui-lniiis trade.
